"Unfinished
Business"
Present Day
16
year old GREG has a lot going for him. As
well as being a top rugby player, he has
a supportive family and terrific girlfriend,
KIM.
After
a game of rugby GREG is sitting with KIM
and JESS in a café.
KIM,
a diabetic, has forgotten to take her insulin.
GREG, in a desperate search for sugar, pushes
in front of CARL at the counter to get some
chocolate for KIM.
CARL
is not impressed and on the way home through
the park, GREG and KIM are set upon by CARL
and his cronies.
GREG
gets the tragic news that a bone is splintered
in his leg. He will never be able to play
rugby again.
GREG
is bitter and wants to lay criminal charges
at CARL. CARL brags to GREG that the police
bundled the charge and that the case is
to be dropped.
GREG
begins to withdraw from family and friends
KIM and JESS advise GREG to forget about
it and move on.
GREG,
however, has other ideas and wants revenge...
KIM
comes over to dinner at GREGs house
and is put off by the bad temper that GREG
displays to her and GREGs sister,
SANDY.
SANDY
is shocked when she discovers a martial
arts weapon under GREGs bed. JESS
and KIM confront GREG about the weapon and
his intentions against CARL. KIM threatens
to leave GREG because of his preoccupation
with revenge.
KIM
is upset and forgets to take her medication.
KIM is rushed to hospital. KIM momentarily
regains consciousness while GREG is by her
side but then slips dangerously back into
a sleepy state.
GREG
meets CARL alone in the park and begins
to fight him. GREG gets the better of CARL
but then to CARLs astonishment, GREG
stops the fight and forgives him.
KIM
recovers and gets back together with GREG.
For GREG, forgiveness took a lot more strength
than getting even.
